Right Click issue

Senior Member

I recently noticed that my right click for folders and files does not open with the 'glass features' (ie the translucent blue bulge) and instead highlights objects in a XP fashion. When using child items in a right click the child items use the glass but still not the main right click menu.

Right clicking desktop, taskbar and godmode folder is still normal however.

I haven't explained that very well but here are some screenshots to illustrate this:

Thanks in advance for your help and if this is normal then I apologise.

Thanks

P.S. I'm Running WIndows 7 with all the latest updates for it and all my software and drivers.

You know what? My apologies. I think what we need here is ShellExView, a related app. You can sort the results it seems, going by the screenshot, for the type. I think we want to look at context menu lines (like the RealOne Player shown in the link here.)

I have fixed my shrunk close, minimise and maximise buttons now (apart from popup warning boxes in firefox where the buttons are fine but the border is shrunk - however I think this will fix when I reboot)

Thanks again - I hope the problem can be resolved it as it is rather annoying

Other than that, you can obviously eliminate the need to look at the other entries that are by Microsoft.

If I had to venture a guess, it would be SecuROM Context-Menu for Explorer causing the issue. I Googled and in the past, it seems it would cause crashes. Try disabling this one using ShellExView as a test.

FIXED!!!! - It wasn't SecuROM - it was the DAP shred file menu (which doesnt work unless you buy premium). Thanks for the heads up about the SVN update though.

After disabling SecuROM and logging off and back in I looked at my screenshot compilation again and realised that the only item that appeared on the broken ones but not the working ones was the file wiper. Disabling it fixed the issue so I will inform speedbit about this problem.

Thankyou very much for your help

P.S. You wouldn't happen to know how to fix skinny borders on popup error/info messages etc. would you?
